Natasha Bertrand of The Atlantic contacted Michael Cohen’s attorney, Steve Ryan, about the payments made by a Russian oligarch to his client:
“I know you’re using shorthand,” Ryan added, when I asked him whether Cohen was paid by a Ukrainian-born Russian billionaire referenced in an unverified Dossier that Avenatti published to Twitter. “But this was not a payment.”
He followed up in an email, writing, “Don’t contact me again. Ever.”
